Talk Title: Digital Delivery of Osteoarthritis Lifestyle Care

Brief Description:

Core recommended lifestyle treatments are under-utilised in the management of knee osteoarthritis. There are many barriers to the adoption and effectiveness of lifestyle care include inadequate patient knowledge, time constraints, cost, limited allied health access, and poor adherence with lack of support for behaviour change. This presentation will present research into the way digital technologies can be used to overcome some of these barriers and improve outcomes for people with knee osteoarthritis.
